By him were all things created,
Colossians 1:12-18(KJV)
12Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
13Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
14In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
15Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
16For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
17And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
18And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
Blessings on Ya!

Advertisers to be "scolded" ???
Stuck in Neutral
By Scott Harrup | September 9, 2008
The New York Times reported today that the European Parliament has voted 504 to 110 to “scold advertisers for ‘sexual stereotyping,’ adopting a nonbinding report that seeks to prod the industry to change the way it depicts men and women.” The committee report influencing the vote, the Times noted, claimed stereotypes in advertising can “straightjacket women, men, girls and boys by restricting individuals to predetermined and artificial roles that are often degrading, humiliating and dumbed-down for both sexes.”
Some controls of advertising make sense. No one should be degraded or humiliated, and the article cited one ad campaign promoted violence against women. But the phrase that sticks out to me is the more general fear of “restricting individuals to predetermined and artificial roles.”
As a parent raising a daughter and two sons, I know there are very real differences naturally characteristic of girls and boys. And I should rephrase that last sentence. As a father, I recognize those differences from a perspective distinct from that of Jodie’s motherly point of view.
There are innumerable ways in which Lindsay moves along life’s path differently from Connor and Austin. And she wouldn’t want it any other way. None of my children feel “straightjacketed” or “restricted” as they grow into more mature expressions of feminine and masculine traits.
Further, my kids have a healthy appreciation for the things that make Jodie and me different. They rely on me in ways they don’t rely on Jodie, and vice versa.
Does this mean things are so rigid in our home that Jodie never takes out the trash and I refuse to run a vacuum or cook a meal? Absolutely not. Our children observe us helping each other without giving up one iota of our respective femininity or masculinity. And that’s how it should be.
So, here’s hoping the European Parliament won’t enact intrusive legislation to back up this currently nonbinding bit of silliness. As the French are fond of saying, “Vive la différence!”
Blessings on Ya!
